Pet care experience

paws-itively passionate pet lover

Hi there! I'm an experienced and loving caretaker for dogs, cats, and all kinds of pets—including chickens, horses, and even the occasional bunny! I don’t do this for the money—I truly find joy in playtime, long walks, and making sure animals feel safe, happy, and loved. I must’ve been a dog in a past life! I know trusting a new sitter can feel nerve-wracking, so I always like to start with a phone call and an in-person meet & greet to make sure we’re a great fit for each other. I put a lot of time and love into each Rover family, getting to know your pets and their unique differences. Each Rover stay feels like its own little adventure, and I truly enjoy every one :) I have years of hands-on experience caring for my own pets as well as those of friends, and I’ve helped train and nurture many puppies along the way. I’m knowledgeable in grooming, basic training, and behavior support, and I bring a calm, empathetic energy to every pet I meet. My background includes work as a supplement advisor at a health food store, where I gained experience with holistic remedies and supplements—including CBD—to help pets with anxiety, pain, and general wellness. I now work remotely in environmental sustainability, which gives me a super flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I live in a dog-friendly neighborhood perfect for long walks or runs, and your pet will have plenty of love from my partner and animal-loving friends while you're away. Whether your pet needs cuddles, structure, medicine, exercise, or just good company, I’ve got it covered. A couple of notes: I’m not able to accept bookings in homes that use synthetic air fresheners or otherwise strong/harsh scents (unless it can be unplugged or not used beforehand) as it disrupts my ability to be comfortable! I generally prefer stays longer than a single night but will consider one offs especially for repeat clients! Thank you for understanding. NOTE: I am still taking bookings in Asheville, NC - I will travel to you! I am currently living with my partner in Charlottesville VA

Reilly saved me in a time crunch situation and was so flexible with the planning! She kept me updated constantly and took such good care of each of my dogs. They are very different personalities and she really catered to each one of them! Will be using her regularly when her schedule works :)

It is important for me to understand eating habits, outdoor / exercise needs and social boundaries. I like to go on hikes / dog park adventures and would like to know how comfortable your dog is on leash / with other dogs so I know whether to do a secluded hike or public hike or no hike at all!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
